THE PEOPLE'S JOURVOL .-NO. 15PICKENS. S. C., THURSDAY, MAY e, 19. ONE DOLLAR A YEAR"LEE, THE PRIN(A Splendid Tribute to ifNative of GreThe following address was deliveredW. Austin, Esq., a native of Greenvill1I. Austin, of Walkereville. Mr. Ausilarta, and as the orator on Memorial 1:credit. Tihe address was heard by s0evMy Friends-The minstrel of thancient days who told in song and storyof the Trojan war sings of a scenewhere Pandai us, an aged councillor olTroy, standing with Cressida, his niece,upon the city's eatern battlements,looks down on Priam's legions comiogback in untamed splendor from theDardat plain whereon they had met inequal combat with the haughty Greek,and as the serried hosts return andeach successive plhalanx files withinthe gate, points out t) her the Trojanheroes as they pass. First comes thebrave Aeneas, commander of the host,the very front and flower of Troy, andnext Antenor, second in command, awarriot shrewd in tactics and renowned, and after him, great Priam's warlike and illustrious sons-there thebold Hector with his helmet hacked andbattered from the blows of Agamuemion's hosts, and then the wantonParis, Helenus next, and now Delphobus--and as each prince of I:'iamu'sroyal blood files into view, Pandaruscalls his name out to his niece andrapidly recounts the style of man he is.Like wave on wave, the columns pass,and Pandarus shades his eyes and looksout oil the plain intently and moresteadfastly. There is one son of Priamnot yet come, the flowei of Ilium'sbrave. Has noble Troilus fallen inthe fray ? The old man's heart sinksas his restless eyes searches the moving matss in vain.But lookl lie starts! a lash of joylights up his shaggy brow, and quicklyturning to his niece, his hand tipliftedto his ear--" hark! do vou not hearthe people cry ' Troilus?' " And asthat names rings and re-cehdes fromten thousand throats, the rear guardof the army co-es in view with Troilusat its head. Then does the old man'spent-up feeling find its vent and as hisidol and great Ilium's pridu with warlike tread comes on, Pandaruis cries toCressida: ''Yonder! 'tis Troilus, braveTroJ1a-1 It pin:-Uf hiva-lry ! Lookwell upon him, niece. Look how hissword is bloodied and his helm morehacked than Iector's and how lie looksand how he goes." And as the gallantTroilus goes past and enters in thegate, and other warriors come on, theold man turns away and with a gesturepregnant of h's scorn cries out: "Theeagle's gone I" and then descends thewall.Today, my countryimen I ask you fora space to mount with me on fancy'sairy wing, and from imagination'svantage ground, look down upon thehighway of the years while I pointout, like Pandarus from the Trojanwall the heroes of the times gone by,as in review they pass before the subtle vision of the mind.And firet among earth's valiant andimmortal sons I call on you to tunand look upon that Spartan band thatcomes before our gaze, moving withmeasuied and unbroken step, theirjavelhns high in air, and brave Leonidasat their front. Silent and grimi andlnoiselessly they pass while deathlessvalor sits enstamped on every firm sctface. They move beyond our ken, theydisappear, we hear the thunder of theages peal-'' Thermepyhae I"And fast on Sparta's fading ranksthere comes another and a greater hostand at its headc upon his fleet-limbedhoree Blucephalus, the stalwart andpuissant prince of Macedon, in regalsplendor rides. The conqueror of hisage, p)roud Hellas' champion, theregoes by. Mark with what majesty thehaughty Alexander leads his serriedranks as conscious of the prowess ofthat mighty rm that laid the wholeworld waste. With all the pomp11 and1(panoply of war, he passes on, and nowis lost to view. And after him, another cavalcade comes oii. We see the(lust whirl upward from the plain, andhear the rumblbng of the solid earth astrembling from the tread1 of an unnumbered host. Nearer they comethe dust clouds rolling back- behold Ithe Roman eagles flash their b)urnlishedwings, and Caesar's legions sweep byin all the splendid pageant of victorouswar. We hear the trumpets sound,and like great Mars himself, the conqueror of the Nervii th'mders past,guiding ii ith (dauntless hand the plunging steedls of his triumphal car, whilefast behind his chnriot wheeh thecountless stand~ards of impljerial Romeflame out in brilliant andh unendlinglmiie.The din of Rome's receding ranksgrows faint, anid in the distance (liesaway, and now a souind of martiulmusic, loud and clear, sends otherechoes flying, and signals the near approach of yet another host. Withrythmic swinig and measuredh tramp thevan~guardl of the advancing columnscomes in view, and at its front we seethe flag of modern France flame onthe way. The flag, that flew defiantover Egypt's burning sand1s beside theancient Pyramids, andl high above thecloudls, shone like a star, from dizzyAlpine heights-that like a bird of preyswept (hown Cisalpine slopes, laid wastethe citron groves and( peaceful vales ofItaly, and flapped its wings against thelurid glare of Moscow's nlame-encircledwas lods on the army of Napoleonnow passing in review.

Corps after corps goes past,and now the figure of Napoleon loomsup before our view.The mighty Corsican--the man ofdestiny-rides by, sublime and terrible.The man of destiny, who, with unheeding and remorseless hand, un.locked the massive doors of Janus'stemple el sed, and flung theim opeinfor a secre of years-the man of des.tiny, who, with the spai k- of recklesspassion and iii hot a-bbition, kindledthe raging fires of universal war, whosecrimson glow lit up a iighty continentfrom end to end-the man of destiny,at whose approach thrones shook andtreinbled, principalities and powersfell prone and disappeared-thu manof destiny, whose supernatural geniusin the art of war flashed like the blindirng lightning's strokes and whosedread thunder-roll dismayed, bewildered and affrighted foe--the man of destiny sweeps, with his mighty army.pvast and now is gone I His batteriesand troops, his long battalions and hisliving squadrons, with all the inovingtrain and engimery of war, go past andand( disappear.Sparta, Macedon and Rome andllodern Gaul have sent their heroesand their armies past, and now withquickened pulse we wait expectant foranother and a last great host. Veteransof the iron cross! can you not hearagain the long roll of the drums, thebugles' clario i call that set the longgray lines in motion--"the sted, tilemiustering s(uadron forming in theranks of war?"

Nearer,and nearer yet lie rides, and now, mycountrymen, as that resplendent figurecomes in full review, with hand uplifted do I point to him, and as the qaged Trojan did of Troilus shout, I cryof him--'Yonder, 'tis Lee! brave Ice,the prince of chivalry !"'" No purer sword led braver band,Nor braver bled for aphriduhter land,Nor brighter land had a cause so gramd,Nor cause a chief like Lee."Veterans of the iron cross, " the aeagle's gone."

New York.THE BAR KEEPER MUST PAYThe Legislature of Indiana HasPassed an' Odd TemperanceLaw.A law recently adopted in Indianaprovides that proprietors of saloonsshall be respoisible for damages to theitiocent victims of the liquor sold bythem. The btate supreme court, hasjust )Issed ~lnIl the la1w, aflirWiig itand holding that it applies in caseswhere womien and children have beendeprived of their means of supporttirough the effects of liquors.II the case before the court it wasshown that Geo-ge omre wo 11ent, homedrunzk, picked a quarrel with ia boarderin the house and killed him.

It was further provedthat on the day of the tragedy, heboiht mid drank liquor at the saloonof one1) ll[aIfmnan, from the effects ofwhich he became intoxicated. Wheiiher huiband had been convicted andi;aisported to the peiitotmiary, Mrs.Iloniaire brought suit against the saloonkeeper, Ilalfman, for damages, placingthe stin of $20,000.

Tle supremecourt reverses the trial court holdsthat tie law does apply inl such casesas that of Mrs. flomire, and sends thecase biek for trial upoin its merits.In its decision the supreme courtsays that the homicide committed byIlomire was a crime punishable by imprisomment, aid that his arrest, conviction and imprisonmnlct. were resultsnaturaliy to be expected; that, a shovinlg by tle plaintiff that the sale of theliquor to him caise( the itntoication,and the intoxicationi camsed the Crimesulifhicntly establishes the plaitiff'sclaim for loss of sum-lpolrt in consequience. it. held that only two factsare necessary to lie show n, outside ofthe sale of thie l iquor by the (detfendanlt.'I'he tirst ot these is the initoxicatonm,caut~sedl ii whlel or ini part by lhe saleot tihe hiquor, and1( thle secon( is the lossof support ini consequenice f such initoxication.,The tem iprane hieople are naturallymuichi elated at the opinii h of the au1premtt~elcourt.
